Instructions:
- Start by pitting and halving the cherries if you haven't already done so.
- Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, dry cocoa powder, brown sugar, and corn flour until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter and milk until smooth.
- Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring consistently with a spatula or whisk until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to over-mix.
- Gently fold in the halved cherries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Lightly grease the microwave-safe pudding molds or mugs with a small amount of butter or non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Divide the batter evenly among the pudding molds or mugs, filling each about 2/3 full to allow room for the puddings to rise.
- Place one pudding mold or mug in the microwave at a time and microwave on high for approximately 1.5 to 2 minutes. Microwave times can vary, so keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking. The puddings should rise and be slightly firm to the touch.
- Let the puddings cool for a minute before carefully removing them from the microwave.
- Allow the cherry microwave puddings to cool for a few minutes before serving. They can be enjoyed warm and are delicious with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Tips:
- Ensure all ingredients are measured accurately for the best results.
- Use fresh or frozen cherries depending on availability. If using frozen, ensure they are thawed and drained beforehand.
- Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly before adding the wet ingredients to achieve a smooth batter.
- Microwave power levels may vary, so keep an eye on your puddings as they cook to avoid overcooking.
- Serve the puddings with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for added indulgence.
- For an extra touch of flavor, add a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
